Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with butter.
Step 2
Melt the
Butter (2 Tbsp)
and
Unsweetened Chocolate (1/3 cup)
together. I do this in a microwave-safe dish in the Panasonic Microwave Oven.
Step 3
In a separate saucepan, heat
Buttermilk (2 cups)
gently until just a little warmer than body temperature - being careful not to boil or cook it. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl combine
All-Purpose Flour (2 1/2 cups)
,
Brown Sugar (1 cup)
,
Baking Powder (1 Tbsp)
,
Baking Soda (1 tsp)
, and
Salt (1/2 tsp)
. Mix well, making as uniform a mixture as possible.
Step 5
Pour melted chocolate and butter into dry ingredients. Pour in buttermilk and
Vanilla Extract (1 tsp)
. Stir until combined. Stir in
Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (1 cup)
, if desired. Spread into the prepared pan.
Step 6
Combine the remaining
Brown Sugar (1 1/4 cups)
with the
Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (1/2 cup)
(plus 2 Tbsp) in a small bowl. Sprinkle this mixture as evenly as possible over the top of the batter.
Step 7
Pour on the boiling
Water (2 1/2 cups)
. It will look terrible, and you will not believe you are actually doing this, but try to persevere.
Step 8
Place immediately in the preheated oven. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until the center is firm to the touch.
Step 9
Cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. Invert each serving on a plate so that the fudge sauce on the bottom becomes a topping. Serve hot or at room temperature. Cooking results may vary depending on microwave oven used.
